Truth be told, I don't particularly care for bees. Being stung in the face as a kid may have something to do with that issue? However, I totally see how important bees are to our environment (more on that below) and have been giving some serious thought about raising honeybees. Feeding hummingbirds nectar has helped me overcome some of my fear. A few years ago I would've run from a bee like my hair was on fire. Now, not that I'm super cool with it, I can collect an empty nectar feeder and shake off the bees. <patting myself on the back>

Anyway, I'm not sure what type of bees these second bees are...if you know, feel free to comment!
